During chemo fingers may swell or as we saw with Catherine, the Princess of Wales, weight loss happens to many. She may have put the sapphire ring in a safe spot so it wouldn’t slip off and be lost. If Prince William gave her something to wear in the meantime, good for him. She has been through ALOT and the new ring may signify a new beginning and recommitment to life.

I've loved that ring since Lady Diana, then Princess Diana wore it. I was so happy when Prince William gave it to her especially his thoughts of having his mum there seeing she'd passed on. It may of gotten to big so she's pit it away for safe keeping as not to loose it. You can definitely tell Princess Catherine is much thinner now. I have a copy set with a necklace, Bracelet, Earrings and that Ring. I love my set.

I do love "big blue" as well and was so excited to see her wearing it the first time! Having had cancer myself, I'll echo that being ill and undergoing treatment changed my ring size a few times over the years I was being treated. In fact, one doctor suggested I wait to get the ring re-sized until my body had a chance to fully recover from the ups and downs of cancer. I ended up using a cheaper ring for a while, especially after my wedding ring slipped off a couple of times and I almost lost it! On a day when she is at the beach or in the forest, I can definitely see Catherine leaving a loose and VERY expensive ring at home just to make sure it didn’t slip off in that environment.

I always heard the story that Harry chose Diana's ring after her death and William chose a bracelet. It is Harry who told William he should propose to Catherine with his mother's ring. I think I heard Harry said: it is a good thing that this ring will be one day on the throne.

The story changed quite a bit, but Harry's official version is that William always had access to the ring for his use. It's Paul Burrell's story that the boys each chose a piece, Harry the ring and William her watch. Burrell is not the most reliable narrator, so I wouldn't put too much stalk in his version.

Sorry to have to correct you, Brittany. The ring is a 12 carat sapphire, set with 18 carat white gold surrounded by 14 brilliant cut diamonds (not 14 solitaire diamonds, solitaire is a single diamond and to say 14 solitaire diamonds is an oxymoron). Keep up the good work, I love your KZbin channel.

I read that Diana chose the sapphire & diamonds ring because (quite sensibly) it was the largest in the assortment presented to her; iirc at the time it cost a very modest (for royalty) £30,000 - although of course this was back in the early 1980s, when it would have represented a great deal more than it does nowadays. Also believe I read that Prince Philip had the engagement ring (and later a bracelet) custom-made from diamonds that came from his mother's collection of jewellery for twin reasons... a) it was romantic, b) as a member of a deposed royal house he didn't have the money to buy such a ring from a renowned jeweller, providing the most expensive elements - the diamonds - was the most frugal option. Since his mother became a nun in the order she founded, she had no need of jewellery but kept the pieces she still had (I seem to recall she had sold pieces on earlier occasions to fund her religious order's needs) and was very happy to provide her son with the means to give his royal fiancée-then-bride with jewellery befitting her status.

Brittany, I agree that W learnt from his parents' mistake that he wanted the iconic ring to be remembered for sth other than his parents' failed marriage. Owing to the vile rumors about W&C's marriage I think the video was to say, we are happily married and we want our children, people who believe us in to know that what we share is true since the open story about his parents marriage failure did affect him and Harry as a child and it is important for the monarchy going forward to show we can love and be loved.

The ring has become a hallmark of Princess of Wales with nods to the Prince Albert brooch. The many levels of provenance associated with an irreplaceable item is something that needs to be addressed. If one was beholden to a priceless heirloom, walking through thick vegetation is probably not the best place to be adorning said item... Now if it was Camilla, her engagement ring was from the hidden Greville collection that was inherited by the Queen Mother. (No Royal Provenance just a "GIFT")

My understanding is that Catherine’s finger was slightly smaller than Diana’s and so instead of having the jeweler resize it, which involves using a torch and high heat and which could have possibly damaged the stones, she had two platinum balls placed on the inside of the band which took care of the half size larger issue. This is very commonly done with jewelry that you don’t or can’t resize. Of course it’s only if the ring it too big, it would have had to be resized if it had been too small but Catherine and Diana are slender women so it worked out well. Catherine also appears to have gotten thinner while on chemo so she’s probably not wearing her engagement ring at the present time and the new ring is most likely smaller and will hold her gold wedding band on securely.

British journalist Russell Myers said when the Olympic video came out that William had given Catherine a “promise” ring when they were attending university. It was made up of garnets and pearls to represent their birthdays. He thought that was the ring she was wearing in the video. I don’t think he’s correct as this eternity band appears to be sapphire and diamonds. Perhaps an anniversary present from William?

I love the ring. I love the sentiment behind it & that Princess Diana wore it even after her divorce shows that she loved it too. I think Prince William was proud to give it to Catherine, The Princess of Wales, as being something his mother loved, even if the reason & meaning for it faded for her. What I don’t really like is that it’s paired with yellow gold. I do LOVE that the band is Welsh gold, I just wish it was white gold, like her eternity band. I hate mixed metal colors. I actually don’t even like platinum, white gold & sterling silver together, as they all absorb light differently. I prefer sterling silver to all white metals, as it shines brightest of the three. I don’t care about cost! I want bright & no tarnish. Platinum has to be cleaned almost every day to stay bright. I’m just going by what I’ve seen. Anyway, it’s lovely & matches William’s eyes now. ♥️

The sapphire is a 12-carat Ceylon sapphire. Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) is famous for its sapphires, from dark blue like Diana’s through to cornflower blue and even white and pink. And if you travel there it’s quite easy to get a good jeweller to make a copy of any of these pieces but at a lower budget.

Chemotherapy causes dramatic, weight, loss and heavy things against the skin can be uncomfortable. It wouldn’t surprise me if she’s not wearing it because it’s too big for her now and it’s just too heavy for her to feel comfortable. I love the eternity band.

No Brittany! The book you read has it wrong. Diana Spencer chose her engagement ring from TRAYS that were BROUGHT TO HER by Garrard's to Buckingham Palace. WHY would the future Queen of England be handed a catalogue? How could she try on the ring? Diana spoke of choosing her ring from a TRAY in an interview. Specifically--Diana recalled she choose the sapphire ring because, "It was the biggest ring on the tray, and I popped it off and put it on my finger!" NOT because it was blue, had a mystical meaning to her, or anything else. SHE SAID she chose the ring because it was so huge. I saw the interview, heard her say it. Reportedly, The Crown (Which I did not watch) showed her choosing the ring from A TRAY. My Mom was still alive when William gave Catherine the ring. A very tasteful, intuitive woman my Mom said quietly, "I would NOT want THAT ring, never! She (Diana) wore that ring causing nothing but upset, trouble, chaos, having fits, running around with other men, screaming to the press for a divorce, or how terrible Prince Charles and the Queen were to her, gets a divorce, then even meaner, then killed in a violent car crash...no way would I want THAT ring." When I stated Diana wasn't wearing the ring when she was killed in the car crash, Mom came back, "I DON'T CARE. I would NOT want that ring!" (Me neither, it's huge, ugly & tacky.) Who would believe Netflix got history right? (Tip: Don't do your 'research' by reading other people's books who obviously don't consult actual sources. There are TONS of archival footage of Diana available to hear her own words, directly from her (Aside from the infamous BBC interview.) Primary sources are the ONLY reliable source.

I didn’t realize how much William sounded like his father when he was younger.

It's a magnificent engagement ring. It's totally iconic. For me, its colour is too dark blue, which blacks out. I prefer more bright cornflower blue 💙 because it shows the colour at a distance. I'm sure the diamonds are D in colour and flawless. Diana's ring 💍 is still lovely and opulent

There is also a ring made especially for it to grip the fi ger somewhat, in order to ensure that the engagement ring doesn't slide down fpher finger as well. You can see it in many photos as well.

I thoughtnitmwas a bit big so had for Catherine so she had little beads placed in it so it fits better rather than re sizing it....

She carries the ring well Not all women can wear a large stone like this I’m happy she has a band of sapphire and diamonds to wear for now or in place of when she feels like switching it up. I’m sure when she comes back to public duties that “big blue” will be on her finger Also his mother picked it out, not Charles She kept it after the divorce too So it’s definitely thought of as Diana’s and not so much her wedding ring which she did take off and not where anymore

Brittany, regarding the Princess of Wales engagement ring, why is everything reduced down to money? The value of the ring is it's association to it's previous owners. It's actually quite vulgar to concentrate on the value of clothes, shoes, jewelry etc., particularly with the Royal Family, who are always expected to tread the delicate balance between "appropriately" and "gratuitously" priced as we all know the cost is never an issue. Vulgarity of price and inappropriate use on occasion is Meghan's World.

Why are you using her maiden name in your title? Catherine has not been a 'Middleton' since she married Prince William over 13 years ago! Best you do some research!

NO MYSTERY! she said it catches on clothing all the time and Princess Diana said the same and it spoilt her favourite jumper which was replace by the designer. Sorry you are WRONG it was not from a catalogue the head jeweller came to Kensington Place to Princess Diana and she chose from a tray of rings, he bought many with him for her to choose from on the day.

I've always loved that ring. I love blue and, in turn, sapphires. But I am sure in day to day life that ring catches on things or may even scratch the kids on occasion. I don't think it's for fetch to think she has a more toned down one for homelife

Charles must not have wanted her to have a Windsor ring. The future queen buying from a catalogue.

I think every woman should have their own engagement ring. I would have preferred if William had used the stones and create his own version for his love. Just me. However, the ring is amazing.

Her replacement ring looks like a mother's ring with the birthstones of her children.

She does look like she has lost weight, so she might have to get a smaller one to hold on the wedding rings.

It could be, though it is in the middle so her original eternity band seems to fit. Thanks for watching!!

Brittany, do you have to do that background treatment ? It takes up more of the screen that the actual thing we’re trying to look at it.

I read that it didn’t fit, they didn’t want to change the ring by making it smaller, so the added white gold little spheres so that the ring would fit better.

I don’t fault her for wanting a less bulky ring around the house or in general. They are a lot. I wear my groove life ring 24/7 unless we’re going out on a date or I want that extra bling.

I've heard that MM tried to get Brother Charles involved in trying to get the sapphire ring back since Hasbeen was supposed to have favored it first. Like at this point she's ever getting it!
